A Quite Unusual Thanksgiving Prayer

Happy Turkey Day! In an effort to be more present with my fam (and so my brother-in-law will stop kidding me about my iPhone addiction) I'm hitting the pause button on The Young Life Leader Blog over the long holiday weekend. I'll resume posts and the 12 Days of Spikeball Giveaways on Monday, December 2nd. Until then, I'll leave you with this atypical Thanksgiving Prayer written by Andrew Peterson. 'O God, Magnificent Confounder,Boundless in mercy and power,Be near me in my apathy.

Be near me, Savage Dreamer,Bright Igniter of Exploding Suns,But not too near. I’d like to live,

By your grace, just long enoughTo taste another perfect steak.And to see my children marry,
